Pecan Spice Waffles with Molasses Cinnamon Syrup

Heaven...I'm in heaven... :)

I have been making these Pecan Spice Waffles/Pancakes using my Baking Mix for a couple of years now but teaming them up with this Molasses Cinnamon Syrup sends them right over the top! I found the recipe for the syrup here. The combination of flavors is perfect for the Holidays!

The pancake/waffle mix also makes a nice gift. Just put the dry ingredients into a baggie and then put that down into a fabric bag or gift bag and include a tag with the directions for making the pancakes or waffles. Pair it up with a jar of this homemade syrup for an extra special, homemade gift anytime of year.

In a medium bowl, stir together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients; stir into the dry ingredients just until blended. Ladle onto a lightly greased, hot griddle for pancakes or a preheated waffle iron for waffles. Feel free to add a little more milk if the batter seems too thick.

In a small saucepan, heat together the sugar, molasses, water and cinnamon over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and continue stirring until the ingredients are fully incorporated. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Cool slightly. Transfer to a pitcher for serving or a glass jar for storing. Keep refrigerated and use within two weeks.

Now I need someone to cook them all up for me. What a great way to spend the morning, a fire in the fireplace keeping the house cozy, a nice steamy cup of coffee and waffles! It doesn't get much better.

About Me

My name is Candy and my husband is Jerry and the Lazy J Bar C Farm is located in beautiful southeastern Arizona near the historic town of Tombstone. We are at 4500 feet and are considered high desert. We have two horses, dairy goats, chickens, a farm dog, a barn kitty and two spoiled indoor cats. Actually, all the critters here are spoiled! Baking and cooking from scratch are two of my passions, photography is another. There is always something that needs done around here which makes for interesting days.
